Names without "The"



In which cases you don't have to write the article "The"


  1. With names of people (John, Doctor Smith, Mr Johnson)
  2. Names of places
  • Continent (Asia, Europe, etc.)
  • Countries (Japan, India, etc.)
  • States (Texas, California, etc.)
  • Uncountable nouns (water, wine, sand)
  • Island (Bermuda, Sicily, etc)
  • Cities (New York, Rome, etc.)
  • Mountains/Lakes (Everest, Lake of Garda, etc)


"The United Kingdom", "The United States of America": the article is used because there is a political meaning.
